sleepless night

rainy season ...
I peer through
the raindrops






Movement of the rain clouds.
My home is just in the middle of the photo
where I made the red dot.



and a bit later, toward the end of this fit of rain



rainy season -
the drama of clouds
between mountain peaks

You can tell whether one is clever
by his or her answers.
You can tell whether one is wise
by his or her questions.

rainy season ...

or a dry one ?


rainy season ...
shall I write a clever haiku
or a wise one ?

big winter rain
or little winter rain...
sleeping is hard

大時雨小しぐれ寝るもむづかしや
